Nothing Sacred / All Things Wild Lyrics

Bitter garden, bitter leaf
Bitter earth, bitter sea
Nothing here is sacred, dear, all things wild
You're gone now for so long, you grown a child
And when you were young
You used to plea
And when you were young
You used to plea to make me believe

Nothing sacred, all things wild
Nothing sacred, all things wild

Bitter water, bitter sea
Bitter dirt, bitter tea
Everything we do is a mess
But oh, honey, may this mess be blessed
And when we were young
We knew everything
And when we were young
We claimed to sing and kick and scream

All things sacred, nothing wild
All things sacred, nothing wild

Bitter blue, bitter green
Bitter you, bitter me
Sorry for poisoning you with my song
I'm sorry now but I won't be sorry long
And when you were young
Dumb and mean
What did you mean when you'd scream

Nothing sacred, all things wild
Nothing sacred, all things wild
